Wow! :) I did not realize these "biggies" were on there too. To answer your
question, I think it largely depends on how huge you are. If someone as big
as amazon.com is on RFC-ignorant, I'm sure administrators across the world
will regard that as a mistake, and do local whitelisting for them

If hotmail is on this list, let's hope administrators across the world
will regard that as a sign they Just Don't Care[tm][r][c].

They didn't care in October 2002, they didn't care in January 2004.
